TOURNAMENT LAUNCH EVENT

February 7th 2016, Chennai, India: On a warm Sunday afternoon 87 golfers teed off at the Madras Gymkhana Golf Course to participate in the Chennai leg of the LLOYD Business Today Pro-Am.

The par 70 golf course, playing about 6258 yards off the regular tees, is known for its tricky roughs, with tall and prickly grass bordering most fairways. The course is unique, being situated within the 2,400-m oval of the Guindy racecourse. With over 50 bunkers, most of them guarding the relatively small sized inverted saucer greens, the course poses a tough challenge to golfers due to the ever-changing winds.
